			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><b>22 June &#8211; 2 September 2012</b><br />
 <a href="http://www.artinliverpool.com/?attachment_id=29948" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.artinliverpool.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/openeye-300x225.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Meurtrière (Dolomites), 2009 © Nicolas Milhé. Courtesy of Galerie Samy Abraham.<br />
<br />
  <br />
 Open Eye Gallery is excited to present Still Outside (or Unexplained), a group show<br />
looking at how we imagine and interact with our surroundings.<br />
 Still Outside (or Unexplained) presents four artists, from the UK, France and<br />
Switzerland. They share common ground, closely observing and reworking parts of their<br />
environments that might otherwise be unseen or neglected. Using still and moving images,<br />
they question what we see as natural and artificial, and what we think we know about the<br />
world around us.<br />
 Pietro Mattioli’s (b. Switzerland) series Two Thousand Light Years from Home reveals a<br />
hidden landscape in the artist’s immediate surroundings. Mattioli took these pictures at<br />
night, as his child slept, over three seasons in 2006-7, never straying beyond the reach of<br />
his baby monitor’s signal. Pools of light from his camera’s flash isolate and transform an<br />
array of familiar objects. The project documents Mattioli’s nocturnal wanderings and<br />
creates a catalogue of hidden beauty in the everyday.<br />
 Nicolas Milhé&#8217;s (b. France) work explores power, surveillance and the seductiveness of<br />
images. Open Eye presents a 3 metre-long sculpture emblazoned with a gigantic image of<br />
a tranquil Alpine landscape. Penetrated by a vertical arrow-slit aperture, it transforms the<br />
gallery into a territory under surveillance and a place of potential violence. Here, Milhé<br />
points to a sinister terrain behind the idealised image of the northern European landscape.<br />
For him the image is a mask that conceals the harsher realities of contemporary politics.<br />
 In her video work Uncomfortable Silence i (2012), Rebecca Lennon (b. UK) meticulously<br />
spray-paints white a series of objects selected from the detritus of a city street. The<br />
gesture recalls the marks that mysteriously appear on roads before works begin, or the<br />
white lines that mark the location of a corpse at a murder scene. Executed according to its<br />
own enigmatic, ritualistic logic, each action reclaims and transforms its object. Rebecca<br />
Lennon also presents a large-scale sound installation, This is what they built the ship with<br />
(2011), in the high-tech, glazed concourse adjacent to the gallery. In what the artist<br />
describes as a “call from the wild, in reverse”, the calls of seagulls, sampled from YouTube<br />
and auto-tuned to assume an eerie perfection, will burst intermittently into the space.<br />
 Alison Stolwood (b. UK) takes a critical look at the idea of nature as something apart,<br />
pure and picturesque. Her photographs highlight the ways in which time and perception<br />
act on the landscape. They hint darkly at something that is both a product of our<br />
interference with the environment, and elements of it that are beyond our control.<br />
 Stolwood writes: “I like to isolate a small part of our infinitely complex surroundings, in<br />
order to think about the impossibility of understanding the whole. I use the lens as an aid<br />
to observation and as a tool for manipulation, power and control.”<br />
 Open Eye was founded in 1977 in the former Grapes Hotel in central Liverpool. As well as<br />
one of the UK&#8217;s first photography galleries, it housed darkrooms, film and video production<br />
facilities and recording studios, which played a major part in Liverpool&#8217;s vibrant 1980s<br />
music scene. The title for this exhibition, Still Outside (or Unexplained), is borrowed from<br />
the B-side of a 7&#8243; single by the new wave band Systems, published by Open Eye Records<br />
in 1981.<br />
 <b>ARCHIVE EXHIBITION</b><br />
<b>ERWIN WURM: ONE MINUTE SCULPTURES</b><br />
 Cult artist Erwin Wurm (b. Austria), whose followers include Flea from the US band the<br />
Red Hot Chili Peppers, uses photography and film to capture transient sculptural works.<br />
Since the late 1990s Wurm has been developing One Minute Sculptures, an ongoing<br />
series in which we see the artist or his models pose in spontaneous ways with everyday<br />
items, inserting pencils in ears, propping chairs on eyes, and bringing a host of inanimate<br />
objects to life. Open Eye Gallery is proud to present a selection of eighteen photographs of<br />
Wurm&#8217;s earliest One Minute Sculptures, made in the late 1990s.<br />
 “The fundamental steps consisted in abandoning the idea of durability and infinity.<br />
Sculpture could also last for just a few minutes, a few seconds. The works were<br />
transported to the level of the immediate present.” Erwin Wurm<br />
 Presented with both a good dose of humour and an underlying cynicism, One Minute<br />
Sculptures question the definition of sculpture, and wider issues about our consumer-<br />
focused society.<br />

<br />
One of the world’s most prestigious photography exhibitions, Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year, will come to World Museum in Liverpool.<br />
From 6 July to 28 October 2012 one hundred astonishing, creative and humorous wildlife photographs will go on display that celebrate the drama and splendour of the natural world.<br />
Among the photographs on display will be the prizewinning entries to the Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition 2011. The overall winner was Daniel Beltrá from Spain for his work Still life in oil, a striking image of eight brown pelicans rescued from an oil spill. Young Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year winner was Mateusz Piesiak from Poland with his work Pester power a picture that depicts two American oystercatchers on a beach on Long Island, New York.<br />
These prizewinning images come from the tens of thousands of international entries from the competition’s 17 categories. The images will be beautifully displayed in sleek backlit installations that present a huge variety of stunning and inspiring photographs capturing nature’s rich diversity. The exhibition debuted at the Natural History Museum before it embarked on its tour around the world. The exhibition will be free to enter and the first time that the backlit images will be seen in the UK outside London.<br />
A selection of mounted specimens from World Museum’s wildlife collection will also be going on display. To tie in with the London 2012 Olympic Games each specimen will be a ‘record breaker’, from the Wandering Albatross who has the greatest wingspan to the Spotted Hyena, a mammal with the most powerful jaws in the animal kingdom.<br />
Steve Judd, Director of World Museum said: “We’re delighted to be showing this fabulous exhibition. From the sea to the stars, World Museum celebrates wildlife and the natural world so this exhibition fits perfectly with what we already offer to our visitors. It also gives us an opportunity to display some of our own collection which will compliment the photography.”<br />
The first Wildlife Photography Competition was held in 1964, with three categories and around 600 entries, now there have been more than 40,000 entries received from more than 90 countries around the globe.<br />
Now in its 47th year, the competition is owned by the Natural History Museum and BBC Wildlife Magazine and is sponsored by Veolia Environnement. It is internationally recognised for taking a lead in the artistic representation of the natural world and continues to be held in high esteem.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><b>18 May 2012<a href="http://www.artinliverpool.com/?attachment_id=29732" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.artinliverpool.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/screenadelica-300x135.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a></b><br />
 <b>16.00 – 04.00</b><br />
 Screenadelica is a hugely successful gig poster exhibition that in the past year has toured and exhibited across England, Europe and beyond. It’s essentially a ‘pop up’ gallery celebrating the art of the screen printed gig poster. Exhibiting the work of leading UK and international artists from the gig-poster ‘scene’.<br />
 Playing host to both UK and international artists, Screenadelica hosts a wide variety of styles promoting the bands the artists love, inspired by the music they hear. With digital download taking over the music scene, the desire to still own something physical makes the screen printed poster all the more important, driving artists to create pieces of art for each show which encapsulates the music in their eyes. This then means that rather than one artist representing the bands sound, they get a whole range of interpretations of their music thru the screen printed gig poster.<br />
 Screenadelica was founded by Liverpool based designer Horse but exists because of the artists that exhibit at our shows and the bands we design for.<br />
